Ingredients
- 1 large peach
- 1 (8-ounce) 8-count tube of refrigerated crescent rolls
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup lemon-lime soda
Directions
- Preheat the Oven:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray an 8×8-inch glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent the dumplings from sticking and to make cleanup easier.
- Prepare the Peaches:
- Peel the peach and slice it into eight equal wedges, discarding the pit. These peach slices will be the juicy center of each dumpling.
- Wrap the Peaches:
- Open the tube of crescent rolls and unroll the dough. Take one peach slice and place it on the wide end of a crescent roll triangle. Carefully roll it up, starting from the wide end, so the peach slice is fully enclosed. Place the rolled peach dumpling in the prepared baking dish. Repeat this process with the remaining peach slices and crescent rolls.
- Make the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Mix until just combined. This mixture will create a sweet, cinnamon-spiced sauce that will caramelize as it bakes.
- Spoon the mixture evenly over the top of each crescent-wrapped peach.
- Add the Lemon-Lime Soda:
- Carefully pour the lemon-lime soda into the baking dish, pouring it into the empty spaces between the dumplings. Avoid pouring the soda directly on top of the dumplings, as this could wash away the butter-sugar mixture.
- Bake:
- Bake the dumplings in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the sauce is bubbly. The soda helps to create a sweet, slightly tangy sauce that perfectly complements the peaches.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the peach dumplings warm, ideally with a dollop of fresh whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. The combination of warm, flaky pastry, tender peaches, and rich sauce is absolutely irresistible.

Tips for Perfect Peach Dumplings
- Peach Selection: Choose a ripe, juicy peach for the best flavor. If peaches aren’t in season, you can substitute with canned or frozen peach slices—just be sure to drain them well.
- Crescent Rolls: Make sure to seal the dough around the peach slices tightly to prevent them from unrolling during baking.
- Serving Suggestions: These dumplings are best served warm, but they can also be enjoyed at room temperature. Pair with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream to enhance the flavors.
These Peach Dumplings are a simple yet decadent dessert that’s perfect for any occasion. With their buttery, flaky crust and sweet, juicy filling, they’re sure to become a family favorite. Happy baking!
